Through Jeremy, Bieber has two younger half-siblings, Jazmyn (born 2009) and Jaxon (born 2010).&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|last=Thomasos|first=Christine|title=Justin Bieber Birthday: Selena Gomez Not Part of Celebration That Included Father, Little Brother and Sister|url=http://www.christianpost.com/news/justin-bieber-birthday-selena-gomez-not-part-of-celebration-that-included-father-little-brother-and-sister-115460/|accessdate=May 9, 2014|newspaper=The Christian Post|date=March 2, 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; Pattie worked a series of low-paying office jobs, raising Bieber as a single mother in low-income housing.

==Career==

[[File:Justin Bieber 2010.jpg|thumb|right|Bieber in 2010, displaying his earlier haircut.]]
While searching for videos of a different singer, [[Scooter Braun]], a former marketing executive of [[So So Def Recordings|So So Def]], clicked on one of Bieber's 2007 videos by accident.&lt;ref name="nyimage"/&gt; Impressed, Braun tracked down the theatre Bieber was performing in, located Bieber's school, and finally contacted Mallette, who was reluctant because of Braun's Judaism. She remembered praying, "God, I gave him to you. You could send me a Christian man, a Christian label!" and "God, you don't want this Jewish kid to be Justin's man, do you?" However, church elders convinced her to let Bieber go with Braun. At 13, Bieber went to [[Atlanta]], Georgia, with Braun to record demo tapes.&lt;ref name="nyimage"/&gt; Bieber began singing for [[Usher (singer)|Usher]] one week later.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url= http://neonlimelight.com/2009/08/11/neon-limelight-interviews-usher-protege-justin-bieber-accidental-star/ |title=Neon Limelight Interviews: Usher Protegé Justin Bieber: Accidental Star|work= Neon Limelight |author= TJ|date= August 11, 2009|accessdate=August 11, 2009}}&lt;/ref&gt;

Usher commented that while he and Bieber were both signed at the same age, "I had the chance to ramp up my success, where this has happened to Bieber abruptly." As a result, Usher, Braun, Bieber's bodyguard and other adults surrounding Bieber constantly coach him on handling fame and his public image.&lt;ref name = "nyimage" /&gt; After signing Bieber, Usher appointed one of his former assistants, Ryan Good, to be Bieber's road manager and stylist. Good, once nicknamed Bieber's "swagger coach", created a "streetwise look" for the singer which consisted of baseball caps, hoodies, dog chains and flashy sneakers. Amy Kaufman of ''[[The Los Angeles Times]]'' comments, "Though a product of a middle-class suburban upbringing in Stratford, Ontario, Bieber's manner of dress and speech ("Wassup man, how you doin'?" or "It's like, you know, whateva' ") suggest he's mimicking his favourite rappers."&lt;ref name="kaufman"&gt;{{cite web|last=Kaufman|first=Amy|url=http://www.azcentral.com/thingstodo/music/articles/2010/04/13/20100413justin-bieber-tour.html|title=Adults work hard to manage Justin Bieber's image|publisher=Azcentral|date=April 13, 2010|accessdate=October 31, 2010}}&lt;/ref&gt; In 2013, Bieber said that he was "very influenced by [[African-American culture|black culture]]", but he neither thought "of it as black or white" nor tried to "act or pose in a certain way".

According to Jan Hoffman of ''[[The New York Times]]'', part of Bieber's appeal stems from his YouTube channel. Long before the November 2009 release of the [[Extended play|EP]], [[My World (EP)|My World]], his YouTube videos attracted millions of views.&lt;ref name = "nyimage" /&gt; Braun recognized the appeal. Before flying him to Atlanta, Braun wanted to "build him up more on YouTube first" and had Bieber record more home videos for the channel. "I said: 'Justin, sing like there’s no one in the room. But let's not use expensive cameras.' We'll give it to kids, let them do the work, so that they feel like it's theirs", recalled Braun.&lt;ref name = "nyimage" /&gt; Bieber continues to upload videos to the same channel and has opened a Twitter account, from which he interacts with fans regularly;&lt;ref name = "herrera"/&gt; his account was reported in November 2010 to have more than six million followers.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web | last = Vena | first = Jocelyn| url = http://www.mtv.com/news/1651843/justin-bieber-hits-6-million-twitter-followers/ | title = Justin Bieber Hits 6 Million Twitter Followers – Music, Celebrity, Artist News|publisher=MTV|date=November 9, 2010|accessdate=December 31, 2010}}&lt;/ref&gt; Bieber surpassed [[Lady Gaga]] for having the most followed person on Twitter in January 2013.

Bieber's father, Jeremy Bieber, is a former carpenter and [[pro-am]] mixed martial artist. In March 2014, ''Rolling Stone'' characterized Jeremy as having "split with Justin's mom when Justin was a toddler, and wasn't always around afterward. But he has, as of late, accepted a place of honor in his superstar son's entourage".&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|last1=Hoffman|first1=Claire|title=Justin Bieber: Bad Boy|url=http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/justin-bieber-bad-boy-20140313|work=[[Rolling Stone]]|accessdate=January 31, 2015}}&lt;/ref&gt;

===Endorsements, products, and philanthropy===
Aside from his career as a musician, Bieber has also ventured into the business world by becoming an angel [[investor]] for technology companies. He has made his first [[Startup company|startup]] investment in 2009. Since then, he has quietly millions of dollars in a dozen small technology start-ups including Stamped, [[Spotify]], [[Shots (social network)|Shots]], and game-for-good company SoJo Studios. He has said that he is not going to invest in something he does not like as he has to believe in the product.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web | url=http://www.businessinsider.com/blackboard/ellen-degeneres | archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/20120605070753/http://www.businessinsider.com/blackboard/ellen-degeneres | archivedate=June 5, 2012 | title=OH NO: Justin Bieber Is On The Cover Of Forbes...For Investing In Startups | publisher=Forbes | date=May 16, 2012 | accessdate=July 9, 2013 | author=Alyson Shontell}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web | url=http://www.businessinsider.com/celebrity-tech-investments-2012-12?op=1 | title=These Are The Celebrity Investors Conquering Silicon Valley | publisher=Business Insider | date=December 15, 2012 | accessdate=July 9, 2013}}&lt;/ref&gt; Bieber endorsed [[Adidas]] beside [[Derrick Rose]] and [[Venus Williams]] in 2012.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web | url=http://www.forbes.com/sites/lancemadden/2012/10/17/justin-biebers-endorsement-gives-adidas-big-boost-off-field/ | title=Justin Bieber's Endorsement Gives Adidas Big Boost Off Field | publisher=Forbes | date=October 17, 2012 | accessdate=May 10, 2014 | author=Madden, Lance}}&lt;/ref&gt; He is the new "face" and "body" of [[Calvin Klein]] in early 2015.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web | url=http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2899538/Justin-Bieber-unveiled-new-face-body-Calvin-Klein-underwear.html| title=Wearing low-hanging jeans finally pays off...

Following Bieber's arrest on the DUI charge, more than 270,000 persons petitioned the [[Executive Office of the President of the United States|White House]] seeking to have him deported from the United States.
